Did you know

• On the Adam Buxton Podcast in late 2020, Paul McCartney claimed he "enjoyed the film" and wished it would've happened "like that".

• When John Lennon offers Paul McCartney the chocolate, he says "Take this, brother. May it serve you well." This is a direct quote of a line Lennon spoke in the background to the song "Revolution 9" and in the scene, it is meant to be a joke between the two.

• After John kisses Paul in the elevator, Paul asks John "Is my name Brian?" This is a reference to Brian Epstein, the gay manager who was rumored to have had a sexual relationship with John Lennon (although McCartney has rubbished this suggestion).
